2015 Cloud Computing Study

Today, 72% of organizations have at least one application in the cloud or a portion of their computing infrastructure in the cloud, and they are not stopping there. As 56% of technology decision-makers are still investigating where cloud use can be leveraged, it is important to understand usage plans across various cloud service models, investments and business drivers. The 2015 IDG Enterprise Cloud Computing study deeply measures all of these areas and ultimately explains the impact cloud computing has on business strategy.

Key Findings include:

Cloud investments continue to rise and enterprise organizations are investing significantly more than SMBs.

Cloud computing investments continue to be driven by lower total cost of ownership, enablement of business continuity and speed of deployment.
